Abstract

In accordance with one novel aspect, a method for storing multiple previously registered networks for network selection is proposed. A UE is first registered to a first SNPN or PNI-NPN(CAG)/PLMN as a non-hosting network. The UE is then registered to a second SNPN or PNI-NPN(CAG)/PLMN as a hosting network with matching validity information. When the second SNPN or PNI-NPN(CAG)/PLMN becomes non suitable, e.g., the validity criteria associated with the second SNPN/CAG are not met, the UE considers the first SNPN or PNI-NPN(CAG)/PLMN with the highest priority and registers to the first SNPN or PNI-NPN(CAG)/PLMN without searching and prioritizing other candidate networks.
